Summary

A session management vulnerability in AOS-8 allows previously authenticated users to retain network access after their accounts are administratively disabled. Existing sessions are not invalidated when credentials are revoked, enabling continued access until session expiration. An attacker with compromised credentials could exploit this to maintain unauthorized access even after the account is disabled.

Risk Assessment

Revoking user access is not immediately effective, potentially allowing continued unauthorized network access. This poses a significant risk in incident response and employee offboarding scenarios.

Recommendation

Update AOS-8 to a version containing the session invalidation fix. Until then, apply compensating controls such as forced logout and network-level access blocking.
